Because there's now more to the distinction between 35mm and medium format than the frame size and shape, it's worth knowing their differences given today's technologies and applications. With the help of photographer and technical expert Karl Taylor, Hasselblad has created a series of comparison videos that put both formats to the test, and show the advantages of medium format in an unbiased manner. thephoblographer.com »

Photography in and of itself is in a spot where digital sensors are all incredible and it's very difficult to tell apart a photo that was shot on APS-C or full frame. So to that end, medium format digital photography is also in a weird spot. thephoblographer.com »

In a somewhat interesting move ALPA, the medium format camera maker, has started to make moves aimed at attracting medium format video shooters to their platform.
